I had hoped to call my blog "The Dog's Breakfast," but that name was long since taken. But in that spirit "The Breakfast" offers a little of this and a little of that, not all of it pretty, some of it poorly chewed. These are papers, posts, stories, correspondence, musings, and links to ideas that interest or amuse me.

The holidays have been hard on my podcast listening. It’s like everyone has been on vacation or something. A week in the deer blind erased my Gresham College, LSE, and RSA backlog, so I’m anxiously awaiting each program’s weekly serving. I ought to have a look at iTunes U to find some fresh classes to listen in on. Until then, these programs comprise my drive-time listening:

This year, instead of creating a master list from which I will be distracted by other acquisitions, new releases, and recommendations, I am identifying a shorter list of some 25 core books, all of which I already own, that I intend to complete. The other half will be the fiction I consume between serious reads and those presented to me by serendipity.

In the fiction category I intend to read more horror, more science fiction, some literature, and maybe even some poetry.
